Today I introduced legislation to ban the use of SNAP benefits on certain types of sugary snacks and drinks. We stole this idea from states like Hawaii.

NEW: It will soon be a crime in California for state lawmakers to sign non-disclosure agreements when they write new laws or use taxpayer dollars.
Gov. Newsom signed the bill tonight filed in response to our reporting that uncovered their use.

Two Assembly Republican bills to cut red tape and streamline wildfire prevention efforts passed committee this week.
We won’t stop fighting to protect California and our communities from devastating wildfires.

#caleg Democrat leaders "intend" to protect California's children.
@AsmJoePatterson is right. Their "intention" doesn't accomplish anything.

Proud to join with @JuanAlanisCA for my third attempt to make felony domestic violence to be classified as a “violent felony.” Believe it or not, some of the worst forms of domestic violence are eligible for early release. Our sponsor this year is @calsheriffs

I'm honored to work with @AsmJoePatterson on AB 292, a bill to help deliver justice for victims of domestic violence. This legislation would classify domestic violence as a “violent felony,” ensuring that the most dangerous offenders are held accountable and remain ineligible for early release. I urge my fellow legislators to join us in supporting this important bill.

(1) Require PUC to allow public comment for all electricity rate increases. No more consent calendars
(2) Require utilities to print on bills cost estimates of govt fees & mandates

California has dramatically slowed and reduced the growth of homelessness – making more progress than a majority of other states, the nation as a whole, and previous administrations.
We’re continuing to lead the charge in getting people off the streets & connected to care.

"The most important thing is that people know how decisions made by unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats and the cost it puts on their everyday lives," Patterson said.

This doesn’t have too much of a legislative purpose, but I am the vice - chair of the privacy committee, and I don’t understand how reporters being in a locker room serves the public interest. Seems like we have privacy laws to protect these things.
Statement on behalf of our Executive Committee regarding the locker room media policy.
